« * __ «odin [0 Pl A Welfare Reality Some fresh studies by the U.S. Departmient of Health, Education and Welfare offer little comfort to those who contend that welfare rolls are cluttered by spongers and that most adult recipients should be made to work. For months a state law has required that employable welfare clients pick up their checks at state employment offices and that they be taken off the rolls if they reject job offers. 2 An HEW inquiry showed that . only 10 per cent of em- ployables were removed from the rolls for non-compliance. Only 4 per cent able to work were given jobs under the program and after three months only a third still had those jobs. Little money was saved by the mandated work program, the study indicated. Even so, it was worth - trying, even if the percentage placed in jobs had been smaller. The effort meant something else. The results underscore the difficulty of helping this complex segment of Americans, many with marginal skills, lack of ex- perience, and physical, emotional and educational handicaps. Many can 'never work - without ~systematic rehabilitation. . There is something gained too. The study refutes exaggerations of the number of welfare clients who could or should be working. Better that critics concentrate on im- proving welfare clients' job training. f | -ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT & CHRONICLE Carlton Hearing Cancelled CARLTON-The State pepartment of Environmental Conservation canceled the public hearing scheduled today on the installation of the water system proposed for the Town of Cariton, Town Atty. Curtis L. Lyman announced. | Attorney Lyman said that no written objections were filed with the department by the May 22 deadline, and the department decided there was no necessity of holding the hearing. The Town Board now is waiting for the expiration of the time limit during which an appeal can be taken on the order of Supreme Court Justice Norman A. Stiller of Buffalo, who ruled the referendum by the town was legally held. After the expiration of the period allowed, a few weeks hence, and if no appeal is started, the board then can go ahead with arrangements to build the lines. Plans include absorbing the present Oak Orchard Water Co. system, installation of mains, crossing of classified streams at several locations, and the taking of a supply of water from existing facilities of the Village of Albion from Lake Ontario. Bremer Date Set UPPER MARLBORO, Md. '(UPI)-Maryland is prepared to open criminal court proceed- ings July 12 against Arthur H. Bremer on charges of shooting Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace and three other per- sons. An innocent plea was entered for Bremer Tuesday in the Prince Georges County Court on 24 charges of attempted murder, assault and violations of Maryland gun control laws. \ The court building bristled with police, standing with rifles on the rooftop and outnumber- - ing spectators in the hearing room, for the Milwaukee busboy's appearance. After the charges against him were read he was whisked under heavy guard 50 miles back to his Towson jail cell. | Arthur A. Marshall, state's attorney for Prince Georges County, said he would be ready to prosecute July 12. Marshall said he believed that Maryland should be permitted to bring its case against Bremer first since the statepenalties were heavier than federal punishment for conviction on the charges. Bremer, who is being held in lieu of $200,000 bond on both . state and federal charges, pleaded innocent last Wednes- day. Deaths BEHE, DANIEL G.

Mimeographed - booklets outlining the budget are available to the taxpayingpublic at any local school office prior to the annual school meeting on Tuesday night, June 13, at 7:30 in Oak Orchard Auditorium. ¢ The new budget calls for total appropriations of $4,334,530 compared to a budget total of $4,189,466 last year. However, increases in aid and a con- Hijacker Commits Suicide SAO PAULO, Brazil (UPI)- A hijacker seized a Brazilian airliner Tuesday night, demand- ed and received $254,000 and three parachutes, then killed himself as army troops stormed the plane. Three hostages escaped by jumping out the cockpit win- dows just before the soldiers rushed the plane. Brig. Gen. Delio Jardim Matos, commander of . the Brazilian 4th Air Zone, identi- fied the hijacker as Nelson Mesquita, who (boarded the Varig Airlines Electra propjet at Rio de Janeiro. \He shot himself before the plane was taken by security forces,\ Matos said. Mesquita pulled a' pistol from a picture album that had been hollowed out and forced the pilot, Celso Caldeira, to return to Sao Paulo's Congonhas Airport after it had taken off for Curitiba, capital of the southern state of Parana. The hijacker demanded $254,000 and three parachutes and when they were delivered on the orders of President Emilio Garrastazu Medici the . gunman released the 88 passen- gers and all crew members except the pilot, copilot and mechanic. Release of the passengers and part of the crew came after seven hours of negotiations over radio from the plane to the control tower at Congonhas as the plane sat in the runway. By then the plane has been surrounded by troops. ‘ Caldeira, 32, said he and the other crew members slipped into the cabin, locked the door and jumped out the windows of the flight cabin then police and troops rushed the aircraft. Have A Chuckle siderable decrease in debt service on buildings makes it possible. to propose a tax rate decrease in most areas. The decrease will range from $1.30 in Ridgeway to six cents in Shelby and the differences are dependent on the equalization rates or level of assessment in each of the six towns served by the school system. Hartland will experience a slight increase of 18 cents in rate and Alabama will have a $2.64 rate jump. Ridgeway's school tax rate is proposed at $33.71 per thousand of- assessed valuation, compared to $35.01 under last year's budgeting. The equalization rate in the Town of Ridgeway has slipped from 67 to 64. Shelby is proposed for a tax rate of $36.56, down six cents from last year's $36.62 per thousand. Shelby's equalization rate is 59 compared to 64 last year. In the Barre, - where equalization rate has slipped - from 61 to 57, the school tax rate. is proposed at, $37.83, compar to $38.32. In Albion, where the rate of equalization is now 60 compared to 63, the tax rate will drop to $35.96. Last year it was $37.01. , In Hartland, the equalization rate is 45 and was 49 last year. The Medina school tax rate for that portion of the town served, will be $47.95 per thousand compared to $47.77 last year. In Alabama, where the equalization rate is 31 compared to 35 last year, the rate will rise from $66.70 to $69.34 per thousand. Under anticipated revenue in the proposed budget discussed last night, an item of $233,730 under \fund balafice\ brought forth an hour's discussion. It was brought out in discussion that the district may have upwards of $400,000 in the fund balance category, but the Board of Education has chosen to budget only a little over half of that for planned expenditure, keeping the remainder in reserve for emergencies, further building renovation, possibly portable classrooms if there is an unex- pected rise in enrollment through local building programs, or for possible future decreases in state aid. This \cushion\ was strongly debated by three people at the council meeting. Lavern Beeton, a former school board president, objected emphatically to not using all of the fund balance and putting it toward further decrease in tax rate. \\I believe a school system should pay its way each year, and any taxpayer today should not be paying more taxes 'to provide a reserve cushion for future years. Let the people of future years face their a 0 # s WOODBRIDGE, England (UPI) - Mary the mallard duck has turnedinto a drake, so says her owner, Alfred Gooch, who blames the sex change on hormones in her feed. ® It started last month, according to Gooch. Ao and pushed William out of First, Mary sprouted a curling black tail feather and a white-feather collar around her neck, like her male companion, William. Now she has stopped laying eggs their nest, _ - \Mary has laid more than 600 eggs since we got her as a day-old duckling 15 \But there's no doubt about it, into a drake.\ ws years ago,\ Gooch said. she has definitely turned own expenses.\ | Laverne Wright, also a past board ' president, said he had similar feelings and also felt the total fund balance \cushion\ should be made known to the taxpayers. A board spokesman said it was intended that this would be done at the annual meeting. ' Melvin Gruber, a former school board member running again for a seat this year, said he felt the entire $400,000 should 'be shown in the budget. S¢hool Business Administrator William Leo and others of the board and administration commented ' that \you cannot budget what: you don't intend to spend.\ They said the $200,000 to be held in so-called reserve could not be spent, at any rate, without a vote of the people of the district. 6 School Supt. Robert gger said, \As I look around at all the building programs going forward in Medina, it is safe to say that we can't predict what | will happen to our enrollment.. There are 400 to 500 units of various types of housing pro | for Medina. These are bound to bring more people. Our school census projections are getting very hard to interpret. We don't know what added expenses will come in the next six months due to growth.\ It was indicated that, the enrollment of the school system is expected to grow from 3,236 Mini Vehicles Mail Carriers The Post Office in Albion has been supplied with a fleet of jeeps for the use of city carriers and the men are viewing the change with mixed emotions. Most first class offices throughout the country are being supplied with this means of transportation for city carriers noting that it is an economy move as a carrier can cover his route in shorter time and the patrons get better service.; | . Postmaster Franklin Kaderli states that while Medina will be supplied with motorized delivery service, it may not come for a year or so. He said there seems to ' be no particular priority system used. It looks like a question of \picking a name out of a hat.\ f \There's more to it than just steering the jeep,\ said one carrier. \While. we certainly save on shoe leather, and our feet are not as tired at the end of the day, getting in and out of thé jeep a few hundred - times can do something to a lot of muscles you haven't used in a long, long time.\ Walking: mileage was about 10 on the shorter routes and up to 15 on the long ones. The day is about an hour longer, they. report, (last Sept.) to an expected minimum of 3,282 next Sept.) and both the high school and junior high are overcrowded at present. It was also pointed out that the figure on instructional salaries and (wages, totaling $2,538,000 compared to $2,234,150 in last year's budget was based only on a guess at the outcome of current teacher salary negotiations. It was indicated last night that the situation is now at \impasse\. A major category of decrease in the budget is in ''debt service\ which drops from $626,301 to $370,000. This is due to two main factors: The completion of a $110,000 roofing project on the high: school which was in last year's budget, and the removal of a bond anticipation note on the new Towne School. Under expenses it is noted in the new budget that tran- sportation costs will rise $55,550 ~ to $204,500. Most of this is directly. returned in state aid, and - school officials said the increase will enable better late afternoon bus service to students in athletics, music, etc. Under state aid in the revenue column; the budget lists $120,000 in BOCES aid, $14,000 under the textbook law, $2,250,000 in operational expense aid, $163,690 in transportation aid, 258,430 in building- expense aid, and $116,880 in high tax aid. This latter form of assistance is a \saved harmless\ provision and goes to districts who are deemed to be spending at a certain level to support their schools. Also, a full time assistant principal is planned for the high school next year since the oc- cupancy of that building is ex- pected to go from 632 to 694 under projected figures. In the younger grades, an attempt is going to be made to reduce the class size by three or four children to an average of 25 to 26 per class. (A follow-up story will give further budgetary breakdowns.) wreath during the final round of his activities in a one-day visit to Iran. The blast occurred only 100 yards from the tomb of Reza Shah the Great, the father of the present Shah of Iran, in the small town of Rey about five miles south of Tehran. There were no injuries. Nixon, who was at the palace where he is staying at the time of the explosion; went ahead with the wreath laying, but delayed the ceremony until U.S. security forces could search the area, - White House Press Secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said. U.S. officials said Nixon would leave on schedule at about 6:20 am. EDT for the last stop on his 13-day overseas tour-Warsaw, Poland. Other Bombs Found The blast near the tomb followed a night of terrorist activity in the Tehran area which saw a total of nine bombs explode, government sources said. They said other bombs were found by security agents before they went off. One bomb blew out the windows of the U.S. Informa- tion Agency building, and another destroyed the car of a U.S. military adviser to the Iranian air force, Gen. Harold L. Price, the sources said. They said a mother and her daughter were Killég in the blast which destroyed the car. Concerned about urban ter- rorism, Iranian officials had ordered tight security. for Nixon's visit. Government offi- cials blamed the bombing on a leftwing organization backed by neighboring ' Iraq. There were no - immediate - reports - of arrests.. 2. Witnesses to the explosion near the tomb said debris was scattered over a wide area but that damage was not extensive. Nixon planned a final round of talks with the Shah today before flying to Warsaw on the final stop on his 13-day overseas tour that included the historic summit meeting with Soviet leaders. Nixon Seeks Repeat In Poland, Nixon sought a repeat of the tumultous reception he received there 13 years ago. . Nixon met with the Shah for 90 minutes after arriving in Tehran Tuesday night, assuring him of Washington's continued military and moral support for Iran in its efforts to ease tensions in the explosive Middle East. Later at a lavish banquet under sparkling chandeliers in the Shah's Nivaran Palace, Nixon called his host a close friend and ally of America on whom he depended for valuable advice. ' The Shah in turn predicted Nixon's visit to Moscow and Peking would have effects on the world. Plans Driving Tour After his arrival in Warsaw, Nixon - planned - what | was officially described as a \brief driving tour\ around the city. There was speculation the event might touch off another wild demonstration such as occurred in 1959 when Nixon, as vice president, was virtually profund mobbed and pelted with flowers by crowds estimated to number up to one million. After a day of talks with Polish leaders, Nixon flies back to Washington Thursday on the final leg of this summit ° journey. Thieu Claims Kontum Seige Is Broken Nguyen Van Thieu flew to two major battlefronts Tuesday on '_a morale-boosting mission and declared government troops had broken the Communist siege of Kontum. Field reports, however, told of heavy fighting there and at Hue. His visit coincided with U.S. command reports that carrier- based - U.S. fighter-bombers Monday pounded North Viet= nam's Uong Bi railroad yard -complex for the first time in 3% years, leaving it in flames and crippling a major part of the North Vietnamese supply . system. The complex, 10 miles north of Haiphong, handles almost «all cargo shipments from Haiphong to Hanoi, 55 miles to the west. . Government spokesmen re- ported nearly 300 Communists . killed during the day around Kontum and the old imperial capital of Hue as Thieu visited the cities, both targets of the Communist offensive that be- gan March 30. ._ Kontum, the embattled Cen- tral Highainds provincial capi- tal 260 miles northeast of Saigon, was hit by Communist i22mm < rocket and 105mm artillery - fire. Pahura Says Atomic Site No Dead Issue Here ALBION - Raymond Pahura, economic development coordin- ator for Orleans County, issued an emphatic statement late yes- terday, saying that \the site in the Town of Yates under study for a possible nuclear power generating plant is still very much in the running and stands a good chance of being chosen.\ He said he issued the state- ment to \spike\ many notions that since the so-called Sterling site on Lake Ontario in the Coun- ty of Cayuga has been okayed for a nuclear plant site, Orleans County's \Morrison site\ is out of the picture. . \I have checked directly with the N.Y.S. Atomic and Space Development Authority in New York City and they authorized me to put to rest any rumors that our county is out of the running for a generating plant site,\ said Pahura. He said he had found very little. forceful opposition and - much support in the county for a future nuclear generating plant here, not only in terms of added assessed valuation and lower taxes, but in the improvements planned around such plants in conservation, wildlife manage- ment and recreation. \We've been told there is a future potential of 19 sites around Lake Ontario on both sides and Orleans County's site is still under active study,\ add- . ed Pahura. ° ' He said a decision and public hearing is expected toward the end of June when state agency. officials will outline their find- ings on the Town of Yates site. 46 Cases Listed on Current Court Calendar ALBION - The May, 1972 trial term of the Orleans County Supreme Court continued here today with the Hon.
